That’s bad news: Sony asked the Freefly team to no more produce High Speed E-mount cameras

Share

Freefly is known for making High Speed E-mount cameras (you can find them here at BHphoto). But this is past: Today they announced the new Ember 2.5k camera with active Canon EF mount and 2900fps.

Interesting information can be heard in the video above starting at minute 1:31. Sony has asked Firefly to stop using its E-mount. This is not news I like, because I would like third-party manufacturers to produce E-mount cameras. What do you think about this?

Very likely: Sony 16-25mm G to be announced tomorrow on April 16

Share

Other sources confirmed that on April 16 Sony should announce the 16-25mm f/2.8 G lens. I am now trying to get the date of the next two Sony announcement in May and June where we will get the ZV-E10, 85mm f/1.4 GMII and likely the 24-70mm f/2.0 GM.

But I already heard about some more gear and if trusted sources know some tidbits please feel free to contact me using this anonymous contact box (Click here and use your usual nickname so that I can recognize you in future) or via sonyalpharumors@gmail.com.

My specific questions are:

  1. The exact 24-70mm f/2.0 GM announcement date?
  2. Info about another lens that should be coming soon (I didn’t share the specs yet of this one)
  3. Info about the next Sony Full Frame E-mount camera announcement
  4. Info about the next generation fixed lens camera(s)

Thanks!
